I have been making these for years, it's a tried and tested recipe given to me by my ex-boyfriends mother! I think the recipe came from the back of a porridge oats box! I've tried many flapjack recipes, but these are my favourite.

Tried this recipe?

What is it that they say about the simple things in life being the best? In this case it's definitely true. :) Wonderfully simple and uncomplicated recipe... and so tasty and wholesome. Real comfort food for me.

Just perfect. I have substituted butterscotch syrup for the golden syrup which works too and gives a slightly different flavour which the family love.

How long do they keep?

Made 2 batches today, absolutely disastrous !!!!! Sadly completely fell apart both times, fabulous taste though. I guess I will have to mix chocolate with it and have crunchy flapjack lumps :)

Brilliant recipe. I have tried lots of different recipes for Flapjacks. This one is the best and also the easiest!
